Combine 2026

Zane Durant the DT from Penn State just ran a 4.75 at 296 lbs. He's only 6'1" but has elite speed and a relentless motor. He could be taken by one of the 3rd round selections.

 

Geez David Bailey just ran a 4.51. He might be the first edge rusher taken this year.

 

Yep!!


Sonny Styles isn't happening. Might have to change my Signature early.

 

Sonny Styles is likely going top 10 after his impressive workout.

 

40 times are largely irrelevant for EDGE Players. The 10 yard split, vertical jump, broad jump, short shuttle and three cone matter a lot more. His 10 Yard Split is disappointing at 1.62 seconds. Compared that to Arvell Reese's 1.56 Seconds. For that matter, Cashius Howell, Malachai Lawrence and even T.J. Parker all have better 10 Yard Splits than Bailey; Parker being the biggest surprise. I have a link here courtesy of NFL.com on where Bailey stacks against his peers; overall not good imo.


My biggest issue with him is when he is up against equally physical freaks of nature in the NFL. Add in his slightly above average athletic skills and Bailey, to me, is one of the most dangerous players to draft. Remember that the EDGE Position is largely a tools based position for a lot of athleticism is required as the foundation to become a good pass rusher. The best rushers have some of the best traits, T.J. Watt has the bend, Nik Bonitto has the get off while Myles is a one of one all together.


David Bailey doesn't compare to any of the three.

 

And the 4.46 he ran just put him in the top 5

 

Bailey will be drafted in the first five picks of the draft.

 

Styles 44" vertical was the highest by a player over 6'4" since they started testing for it in 2003.

 

Which will be a massive mistake given the fact he is all finesse and no power. He is a rock solid speed rusher but doesn't have that elite speed nor burst to truly impact the game. He is more Jaelen Phillips than he is Micah Parsons.


If anything and, as I stated many times leading up to the draft, Arvell Reese is a much better comp.
